Approx. address for this drive-in was 23901 South Chrisman Rd, Tracy, CA 95304.
The location is essentially behind where the Chevron gas station and convenience store is currently located, at the corner of 11th Street and Chrisman Road.
ADD: The zip code should actually 95304, as JWMovies noted. It was in the Banta end of town.
A more accurate address (at least for Google) is 23901 North Chrisman Road, Tracy, CA 95304. Today, a small industrial park with a series of businesses occupies the property.
There is no trace of the drive-in remaining. http://tinyurl.com/ztx8z2w
